Adjust font size:

Blue-green algae is seen on the surface of Taihu Lake in this recent photo taken in Yixing, east China's Jiangsu Province. Outbreaks of blue-green algae, which sparked last year's water shortage crisis in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, may hit Taihu Lake again this summer, say some scientists and top environmental officials.

The words "SOS Taihu Lake", written using blue-green algae, are seen on the bank of the lake in this recent photo taken in Yixing, East China's Jiangsu Province. Outbreaks of blue-green algae, which sparked last year's water shortage crisis in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, may hit Taihu Lake again this summer, say some scientists and top environmental officials.
